Wake Up.
This is a reblog from God Loves Women. The replies to that blog are worth reading too. Trump is the president elect. White evangelical Christians supported him and voted for him.

Hallowed
Hallowed be your name The Lord's Prayer — Part 4 Hallowed. Holy. Set aside. Hallowed be your name we pray. God is holy, God is set apart. There is no fault or blemish in God. Which one of us can create something by saying it? The opening of the Lord's prayer is a thing of …
In Heaven
In Heaven The Lord's Prayer — Part 3 "Heaven is a place on Earth," said the Belinda Carlisle song. But that is not what Christianity teaches. (Even though the words could be applied to God, Sister Act style.) Heaven is a mystery, it is something we cannot comprehend. All we know is that it is …

On Saturday 15th October my son Matthew married Lois Cameron. A good service, as they met through their church, The Ark, Huddersfield, and the service was at ours, Holy Trinity Huddersfield, there were a lot of people there who knew about how to sing in church, a good noise. And the reception was good too. The …
Mum
Early on September 18th Mum passed away peacefully in her sleep. Friday 30th was the funeral. What can I say about this wonderful woman? Married to a fishmonger, with six children, and worked in factories and as a shop girl and a cleaner, not what you would think would be a great person ... ... …
